6But the rumour of this having spread, the multitude came together and were confounded, because each one heard them speaking in his own dialect.
7And all were amazed and wondered, saying, Behold, are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans?
8and how do we hear them each in our own dialect in which we have been born,
9Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and those who inhabit Mesopotamia, and Judaea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
10both Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Libya which adjoin Cyrene, and the Romans sojourning here, both Jews and proselytes,
11Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our own tongues the great things of God?
12And they were all amazed and in perplexity, saying one to another, What would this mean?
13But others mocking said, They are full of new wine.
14But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke forth to them, Men of Judaea, and all ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give heed to my words:
15for these are not full of wine, as ye suppose, for it is the third hour of the day;
16but this is that which was spoken through the prophet Joel,
17And it shall be in the last days, saith God, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your elders shall dream with dreams;
18yea, even upon my bondmen and upon my bondwomen in those days will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.
19And I will give wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20the sun shall be changed to darkness and the moon to blood, before the great and gloriously appearing day of the Lord come.
21And it shall be that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
22Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness to by God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know
23— him, given up by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye, by the hand of lawless men, have crucified and slain.
24Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death, inasmuch as it was not possible that he should be held by its power;
25for David says as to him, I foresaw the Lord continually before me, because he is at my right hand that I may not be moved.
26Therefore has my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted; yea more, my flesh also shall dwell in hope,
27for thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor wilt thou give thy gracious one to see corruption.
28Thou hast made known to me the paths of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy countenance.
29Brethren, let it be allowed to speak with freedom to you concerning the patriarch David, that he has both died and been buried, and his monument is amongst us unto this day.
30Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn to him with an oath, of the fruit of his loins to set upon his throne;
31he, seeing it before, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that neither has he been left in hades nor his flesh seen corruption.
32This Jesus has God raised up, whereof all we are witnesses.
33Having therefore been exalted by the right hand of God, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which ye behold and hear.
34For David has not ascended into the heavens, but he says himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand
35until I have put thine enemies to be the footstool of thy feet.
36Let the whole house of Israel therefore know assuredly that God has made him, this Jesus whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
37And having heard it they were pricked in heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles, What shall we do, brethren?
38And Peter said to them, Repent, and be baptised, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, for remission of sins, and ye will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
